WINNIPEG Rifles receiver Brett Carter will not be on the roster of the CFL's Winnipeg Blue Bombers this season.
Carter made a strong case for consideration in the team's two exhibition games this month, hauling in five passes.
His name was not among the 21 official cuts the Bombers made on Saturday, but head coach Tim Burke said Carter will not be a regular in 2013.
The good news in the scenario is the 20-year-old will be able to practise with the Blue Bombers until the Rifles' junior season begins.
"He will do that, and we're glad," Burke said, explaining that Carter fits the bill as a "territorial player," and thus can participate in workouts.
There's lots to like about the young receiver, Burke added.
"Work ethic, he knows our system inside and out," the coach said. "He catches the ball really well. So it'll be great having him around."
Down the road
Saturday's Taylor Swift concert at Investors Group Field has punted the Blue Bombers from practising on their home turf since early last week, and stage and venue tear-down will keep them off the field a few more days.
The team's main preparations for this Thursday's season-opener at home against Montreal will be moved down the street to a practice field just west of the Winnipeg Indoor Soccer Complex.
No big deal, Bombers coach Burke said.
"I don't think it'll be a bother," he said. "It's just a short walk down the block. I don't think it'll be a big bother, no, as long as they don't leave anything on the field."
You're in
The final roster will include at least three new faces on the Bombers' defence -- safety Cauchy Muamba, defensive lineman Freddie Harris and defensive back Marty Markett.
Harris and Markett clearly earned their stripes with training-camp performances, Burke indicated Saturday.
"Freddie has very good speed off the edge and... he has a very good speed to power-move as well," the coach said. "We really like that about him. I think he really progressed as two-a-days went along. I think he's going to be a good player for us.
"Markett, his speed, you can't replace that, and he's intelligent, so he can learn more than one position."
The team's main roster of 46 players still had a ways to go as of late Saturday, with 52 players still listed as in camp. Moves to the injured list are likely figure in the final juggling.
Back at it
Most decisions made, the Bombers are back on the practice field today at 11:10 a.m., just a little more than four days before kickoff for the regular season.

It's not clear what exactly you're talking about. If you're looking for a sleeve that fits the pot shaft, you are highly unlikely to ever find that as a stock item, as it's a pretty specialized part for manufacturing.
You can either make something yourself (1/8" NPT Brass plumbing pipe might be a good place to start). Cut to length and then drill and tap the setscrew hole, which is easy in brass.Or, buy some cheap surplus metal knobs of relatively small diameter, then embed them in the wood or plastic knobs you're planning on making. If you have a source of surplus knobs, check them out for their brass inserts; you may be able to shatter the old bakelite bodies and free the inserts. --Buckapound |

Or contact a knob manufacturer who makes knobs using such innards and ask if you can get just the brass part in sample quantities. Tell them you want to experiment molding various shapes to it for a prototype you are designing.
And set screws are common, but you might also consider collet knobs as an alternative. If you don;t know collets, it grips the shaft like the chuck on your power drill or on a Dremel. There is a nut up under the knob cap to tighten it. |

May 14, 2013 Transforming Your World Aries Daily Horoscope
You could seek haven in the comfort of your home today, which might be because you wish to escape from the stresses of the outside world. Although it is important to face the problems you have in your life, it is equally essential to create space for quiet time to reenergize yourself. Making a date with yourself to sit in quiet contemplation or mediation can be a way for you to gather the strength you need to cope with external pressures. As you spend time in mediation, you may wish to imagine that the issues that concern you are simply lessons that the universe is giving you in order to move you further along your path. Seeing the outside world in this way might make you feel more secure about what awaits you and may help you realize that it is your approach to these issues that matters.

Days after Louis Cruise Lines' Sea Diamond sank in the Aegean Sea, tough-to-answer questions are surfacing on Cruise Critic's message boards, such as these from Checkmate 1955: "Can someone tell me how a modern cruise ship with all of the safety features that I am sure are built into these vessels can sink so easily? Are modern cruise ships that easy to sink? What happened to watertight compartments?"
"No matter what," Lotteryfan writes, "this entire situation makes me nervous. What if this would have happened further out at sea and there wasn't another ship within hundreds of miles. Would as many people have survived? I'm cruising in a few weeks and will pay more attention to the evacuation drill."
Ah, there's the rub -- or at least the topic that incenses Cruise Critic readers the most when it comes to safety at sea.
Joeinsb writes, "We attended lifeboat drills on each of our three cruises on Century ... and at the first two at least a couple of passengers did not bother to come to muster, but stayed on their verandahs. We knew, because the Miami cruise terminal, which we were facing, has glass walls and we could clearly see their reflections in the windows (one guy, who was sitting in a deck chair, looked like he might possibly be mooning us). I mentioned this to a crewman and he just shrugged."
"I always see people talking and carrying on during the drill," adds Beemerrider, "and when it comes time to put on their lifejacket, they don't know what to do. Although cruising is one of the safest ways to travel, emergencies can still arise, so pay attention! You may need that knowledge whether the ship is listing, catches on fire or sinks."
5:00 Somewhere knows that drill firsthand: "We were on the Star Princess last March when it caught on fire in the middle of the night. The alarm sounded about a little after 3 a.m. and I genuinely believe that part of the reason we were so well equipped for the emergency was that we'd done the drills on all four of our cruises so that it was just sort of automatic to remember warm clothing and a hat and our medications, etc."
What about passenger claims that lifejackets and help from crewmembers were scarce? One reader writes in via e-mail, "Most passengers pay very little, if any, attention during the safety muster at the beginning of the voyage. Also, many passengers expect that events will be as calm, cool and collected as they were during the safety drill. Considering that many of the same people who complained also stated that the ship listed 45 degrees and sent people flying across the decks, take what they say with a grain of salt."
Admiral Horatio Nelson writes, "It is a requirement that enough life jackets for all souls onboard be kept at lifeboat stations ... It is possible that the people who reported they couldn't find them did not hear this info at the boat drill ... I always walk around my new ship and check that I know these things and also (at least) two ways from my cabin to a lifeboat station obviously in case one is blocked due to fire, etc."
Member chienfou writes: "I was on [Sea Diamond] less than two weeks ago ... The ship was in good shape when we were on her. Complaints have been logged about the use of 'steep rope ladders' during the evacuation. DUH! In an emergency evacuation you cannot expect the availability of level gangplanks etc. As evidenced by the pictures available online, there were plenty of staff assisting in the process and it appears to have been done pretty efficiently and professionally."
Reader Mike Falciani says goodbye to Sea Diamond via e-mail: "We were on the Sea Diamond in the second week of July in 2006 on a four-day cruise. The ship was in pretty good shape and the crew seemed very professional. It was the biggest ship of the four or five that we raced from island to island everyday. I still can't believe it sank."
Two-thirds of the passengers onboard were American, many high school and college students on break for the Easter holiday. Watch these homecoming videos:

Cruise Critic Members Respond to Sea Diamond Incident
April 9, 2007

In the mid-1840s, the Scottish painter-photographer team of Hill and Adamson produced the first substantial body of self-consciously artistic work using the newly invented medium of photography. William Henry Fox Talbot's patent restrictions on his "calotype" or "Talbotype" process did not apply in Scotland, and, in fact, Talbot encouraged its use there. Among the fellow scientists with whom he corresponded and to whom he sent examples of the new art, was the physicist Sir David Brewster, principal of the United Colleges of Saint Salvator and Saint Leonard at Saint Andrews University, just north of Edinburgh. By 1841, Brewster and his colleague John Adamson, curator of the College Museum and professor of chemistry, were experimenting with the calotype process, and the following year they instructed Adamson's younger brother Robert in the techniques of paper photography. By May 1843, Robert Adamson, then just twenty-one years old, was prepared to move to Edinburgh and set up shop as the city's first professional calotypist.
As important as Brewster's introduction of Adamson to the calotype was, another introduction proved even more consequential. Just weeks after Adamson had established himself in Edinburgh, Brewster saw an opportunity to send business his way. On May 18, 1843, the Church of Scotland met in General Assembly amid great dispute over the role of the crown and landowners in appointing ministers. As the Assembly opened, the moderator, Rev. Dr. David Welsh, read an Act of Protest and led 155 ministersmore than one-third of those presentfrom the Assembly and through the streets of Edinburgh to Tanfield Hall, where in the days that followed they signed a Deed of Demission, resigning their positions and livelihoods, and established the Free Church of Scotland. Their act of conscience, at great personal risk and sacrifice, seemed heroic to many who were present, including Sir David Brewster and David Octavius Hill.
Hill was a locally prominent and well-connected painter of romantic landscapes and secretary of the Royal Scottish Academy of Fine Arts in Edinburgh. With the encouragement of the new Free Church, he resolved to paint a large historical painting of the signing of the Deed of Demission and, as was often the case for works of this nature, proposed to finance his painting through the sale of reproductive engravings of the finished work. In his advertisement for the engravings, issued within a week of the Disruption (as the upheaval was called), Hill wrote, "The Picture, the execution of which, it is expected will occupy the greater portion of two or three years, is intended to supply an authentic commemoration of this great event in the history of the Church will contain Portraits, from actual sittings, in as far as these can be obtained, of the most venerable fathers, and others of the more eminent and distinguished ministers and elders."
Brewster, sensing that Hill's intention to sketch each of the several hundred ministers before they returned to the far corners of Scotland would be close to impossible, suggested that the painter use the services of the newly established Adamson to make photographic sketches instead. "I got hold of the artist," Brewster wrote to Talbot in early June, "showed him the Calotype, & the eminent advantage he might derive from it in getting likenesses of all the principal characters before they were dispersed to their respective homes. He was at first incredulous, but went to Mr. Adamson, and arranged with him preliminaries for getting all the necessary portraits." Within weeks Hill was completely won over, and the two were working seamlessly in partnership. As artistic director, Hill composed each picture, placing his sitters as they might appear in the finished painting.
Adamson operated the camera and carried out the chemical manipulations. Hill and Adamson were a perfect team. Hill, twenty years older than Adamson, was trained as a painter and had important connections in artistic and social circles in Edinburgh; he easily attracted a distinguished clientele to the team's portrait studio at Adamson's home, Rock House. Most of all, he possessed a geniality, a "suavity of manner and absence of all affectation," that immediately set people at ease and permitted him to pose his sitters without losing their natural sense of posture and expression. Adamson was young but had learned his lessons well. He was a consummate technician, excelling inand even improving uponthe various optical and chemical procedures developed by Talbot. Both men had a profound understanding of the way the world would translate into monochrome pictures.
If in May Hill had been incredulous, by June he was convinced; by July he was proud to exhibit the first photographs as "preliminary studies and sketches" for his picture, and by the end of the year he and his partner had photographed nearly all the figures who would have a place in his grand painting. Their hundreds of preparatory "sketches" ranged from single portraits to groups of as many as twenty-five ministers posed as Hill envisioned them in his ambitious composition. Some portraits, such as that of Thomas Chalmers, first moderator of the Free Church, were used as direct models for the finished work. However, at each sitting, Hill and Adamson made numerous photographs in various poses, and many photographs of the ministers have no direct correspondence with the painting. Still other portraits, of people who were not present for the signing of the Deed of Demissionbut whom Hill apparently thought should have beenwere used as models for the painting.
"The pictures produced are as Rembrandt's but improved," wrote the watercolorist John Harden on first seeing Hill and Adamson's calotypes in November 1843, "so like his style & the oldest & finest masters that doubtless a great progress in Portrait painting & effect must be the consequence." In actuality, though, it was so easy to make the portrait "sketches" by means of photography that Hill's painting was ultimately overburdened by a surfeit of recognizable faces: 450 names appear on his key to the painting. The final compositionnot completed for two decades and as dull a work as one can imaginelacks not only the fiery dynamism of Hill's first sketches of the event but also the immediacy and graphic power of the photographs that were meant to serve it.
By August 1844, Hill and Adamson clearly understood the value of their calotypes as works of art in their own right and decided to expand their collaboration far beyond the original mission, announcing a forthcoming series of volumes illustrated with photographs of subjects other than the ministers of the Free Church: The Fishermen and Women of the Firth of Forth; Highland Character and Costume; Architectural Structures of Edinburgh; Architectural Structures of Glasgow, &c.; Old Castles, Abbeys, &c. in Scotland; and Portraits of Distinguished Scotchmen. Although these titles were never issued as published volumes, photographs intended for each survive, and those made in the small fishing town of Newhaven are a particularly noteworthy group.
In a time as pervaded as ours is by photographic imagery, it is difficult to conceive that within the first few weeks of their collaboration, Hill and Adamson made more photographs than the two together had ever seen. In four-and-a-half years and nearly 3,000 images, they pioneered the aesthetic terrain of photography and created a body of work that still ranks among the highest achievements of photographic portraiture. Their collaboration ended not because of any artistic falling out between the partners but rather because Adamson, sickly from childhood, fell ill in late 1847 and returned to Saint Andrews to be cared for by his family. He died in January 1848.

Karla Faye Tucker (November 18, 1959 – February 3, 1998) was the first woman to be executed in the United States since 1984, and the first in Texas since 1863. She was convicted of murder in Texas in 1984 and put to death fourteen years later. Because of her gender and widely publicized conversion to Christianity, she inspired an unusually large national and international movement advocating the commutation of her sentence to life imprisonment, a movement that included a few foreign government officials.
Early life[edit]
Karla Tucker was born and raised in Houston, Texas, the youngest of three sisters. Her father Larry was a longshoreman. The marriage of her parents was very troubled, and Tucker started smoking cigarettes with her sisters when she was eight years old. At the age of 10, her parents divorced, and during the divorce proceedings, she learned that she had been the result of an extramarital affair. By age 12, she had turned to drugs and sex. When she was 14, she dropped out of school and followed her mother Carolyn, a rock groupie, into prostitution and began traveling with the Allman Brothers Band, The Marshall Tucker Band, and the Eagles. At age 16, she was married briefly to a mechanic named Stephen Griffith. In her early 20s, she began hanging out with bikers, and met a woman named Shawn Dean and her husband Jerry Lynn Dean, who introduced her to a man named Danny Garrett in 1981.[1][2]
The murders[edit]
After spending the weekend doing drugs with Garrett and their friends, Tucker and Garrett entered Jerry Dean's home around 3 a.m. on Monday 13 June 1983 intending to steal Dean's motorcycle. James Leibrant, a friend, went with them to Dean's apartment complex. Leibrant reported that he went looking for Dean's El Camino while Tucker and Garrett entered the apartment with a set of keys that Tucker claimed Shawn Dean had lost and Tucker had found.[citation needed]
During the burglary, Tucker and Garrett entered Dean's bedroom, where Tucker sat on him. In an effort to protect himself, Dean grabbed Tucker above the elbows, whereupon Garrett intervened. Garrett struck Dean numerous times in the back of the head with a hammer he found on the floor. After hitting Dean, Garrett left the room to carry motorcycle parts out of the apartment. Tucker remained in the bedroom.[citation needed] The blows Garrett had dealt Dean caused his head to become unhinged from his neck and his breathing passages to fill with fluid. He began making a "gurgling" sound characteristic of this type of injury. Tucker wanted to "stop him from making that noise" and attacked him with a pickaxe. Garrett then re-entered the room and dealt Dean a final blow in the chest.[citation needed]
Garrett left the bedroom again to continue loading Dean's motorcycle parts into his Ranchero. Tucker was once again left in the room and only then noticed a woman who had hidden under the bed covers against the wall. The woman, Deborah Thornton, had met Dean at a party earlier that afternoon. Upon discovering Thornton, Tucker grazed her shoulder with the pickaxe. Thornton and Tucker began to struggle, but Garrett returned and separated them. Tucker proceeded to hit Thornton repeatedly with the pickaxe and then embedded the axe in her heart. Tucker would later tell friends and testify that she experienced intense multiple orgasms with each blow of the pickaxe.[3][4]
The next morning, a co-worker of Dean's who had been waiting for a ride entered the apartment and discovered the victims' bodies. Investigation led to the arrests of Tucker and Garrett.[5]
In September 1983, Tucker and Garrett were indicted and tried separately for the murders. Tucker entered a plea of not guilty and was jailed awaiting trial. Soon after being imprisoned, Tucker took a Bible from the prison ministry program and read it in her cell. She later recalled, "I didn't know what I was reading. Before I knew it, I was in the middle of my cell floor on my knees. I was just asking God to forgive me." Tucker became a Christian in October 1983. She later married her prison minister, the Reverend Dana Lane Brown, and held her Christian wedding ceremony inside the prison.[citation needed]
Though the death penalty was hardly ever sought for female defendants, Tucker, along with Garrett, was sentenced to death in late 1984. (Garrett died in prison of liver disease in 1993.) She shared her Death Row cell at the Mountain View Unit with her friend Pam Perillo, whose own sentence was eventually commuted to life in prison.[citation needed]
Between 1984 and 1992, requests for a retrial and appeals were denied, but on June 22, Tucker requested that her life be spared on the basis that she was under the influence of drugs at the time of the murders, she would not have committed the murders had she not taken drugs and she was now a reformed person. Her plea drew support from abroad and also from some leaders of American conservatism. Among those who appealed to the State of Texas on her behalf were Bacre Waly Ndiaye, the United Nations commissioner on summary and arbitrary executions; the World Council of Churches; Pope John Paul II; Italian Prime Minister Romano Prodi; the Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Newt Gingrich; televangelist Pat Robertson; and Ronald Carlson, the brother of Tucker's murder victim Debbie Thornton. The warden of Texas's Huntsville prison testified that she was a model prisoner and that, after 14 years on death row, she likely had been reformed.[6] The board turned her down on 28 January 1998.[6]
While on death row, Karla Faye Tucker was incarcerated in the Mountain View Unit in Gatesville, Texas.[7] She became Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) Death Row #777.[8]
On February 2, 1998, state authorities took Tucker from the unit in Gatesville and flew her on a TDCJ aircraft,[9] transporting her to the Huntsville Unit in Huntsville.[10] Karla Faye Tucker's last meal request consisted of a banana, a peach, and a garden salad with ranch dressing.[11]
She selected four people to watch her die which included her sister Kari Weeks, her spouse Dana Brown, her close friend Jackie Oncken, and Ronald Carlson. At one time Ronald Carlson had supported the execution but later after a religious conversion decided that he opposed all executions. The witnesses for the victims included Thornton's husband Richard, Thornton's only child William Joseph Davis and Thornton's stepdaughter Katie. Tucker's execution was also witnessed by members of TDCJ, Warden Bagget, and various representatives of the media. Her last words were:[12]
" | Yes sir, I would like to say to all of you — the Thornton family and Jerry Dean's family — that I am so sorry. I hope God will give you peace with this. (She looked at her husband.) Baby, I love you. (She looked at Ronald Carlson.) Ron, give Peggy a hug for me. (She looked at all present weeping and smiling.) Everybody has been so good to me. I love all of you very much. I am going to be face to face with Jesus now. Warden Baggett, thank all of you so much. You have been so good to me. I love all of you very much. I will see you all when you get there. I will wait for you. | " |
She was executed by lethal injection on February 3, 1998. As the lethal chemicals were being administered she was praising Jesus Christ. Eight minutes after receiving the injection, she was pronounced dead at 6:45pm CST. She was the first woman executed in the State of Texas in 135 years, when Chipita Rodriguez was executed by hanging during the American Civil War.
She is buried at Forest Park Lawndale Cemetery in Houston.[13]
In the year following her execution, conservative commentator Tucker Carlson questioned Governor George W. Bush about how the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles had arrived at the determination on her clemency plea. Carlson alleged that Bush, alluding to a televised interview which Karla Faye Tucker had given to talk show host Larry King, smirked and spoke mockingly about her.[14] A full length movie was released in 2004 about the life of Tucker entitled Forevermore starring actress Karen Jezek.[15]
The captain of the "Death House Team," Fred Allen, was interviewed by Werner Herzog for the 2011 documentary "Into the Abyss." Within days after Tucker's execution, one of over 120 he managed, he suffered an emotional breakdown. He resigned his job, giving up his pension, and changed his position on the death penalty. "I was pro capital punishment. After Karla Faye and after all this, until this day, eleven years later, no sir. Nobody has the right to take another life. I don't care if it's the law. And it's so easy to change the law."

New York bids farewell to 'Queen of Soul Food'AP July 26, 2012, 12:13 am TWN NEW YORK--New Yorkers gave a big sendoff to "Queen of Soul Food" Sylvia Woods, whose famed Harlem restaurant served everybody from Muhammad Ali to Bill Clinton, ahead of her burial Wednesday.
Mourners flocked to a historic African American church in Harlem where Woods, who died last week at 86, lay in an open coffin Tuesday, surrounded by white roses. Although the Sylvia Woods restaurant will be kept open by family, Woods' death marked the end of an era. Mayor Michael Bloomberg delivered a eulogy at the Abyssinian Baptist Church, while veteran civil rights leader Al Sharpton was to speak at Wednesday's funeral. Far more than just a successful business in a rough neighborhood, the Sylvia Woods restaurant was a cultural touchstone for multi-ethnic New York. Politicians including President Barack Obama, actors and sports stars rubbed shoulders with busloads of foreign tourists and fervently enthusiastic local fans.

COLUMBIA — An unexpected guest lives behind doors marked "Employees Only" at Columbia's animal shelter: a stray alligator.
Allygator, as the staff fondly calls him, has been staying at the Central Missouri Humane Society for roughly two months after animal control workers with the Columbia/Boone County Health Department seized the reptile from an apartment where it was living in a bathtub. The owners face a fine for housing an exotic animal without the proper license.
The gator is not up for adoption or available for public viewing. At the shelter, he divides his time between an inside habitat with a feeding trough and an outside pen with a child's wading pool.
Outside, the alligator can bask in the sun in a posh pen, with amenities including mulch, logs and the 70-degree pool. Inside, the space is equipped with a heat lamp to keep the temperature at 80 degrees.
The 3 1/2-foot animal is the shelter's first alligator. Staff members initially expressed concerns about caring for him because no one had experience with aggressive reptiles.
"We definitely had to do our homework on how to care for him," shelter relations coordinator Halley Taylor said. "We got online, did our research, called local pets stores, asked for advice on dietary needs and general care information, and rolled with it. We really did hit the ground running."
Alligators typically live in slow-moving, freshwater bodies of water and need the sun and heat to survive. American alligators are common in Florida and other parts of the Southeast, from the Carolinas to Texas.
When not in captivity, they live about 35 to 50 years and feed on snails, frogs, insects, fish and small mammals, eaten whole.
The average adult weighs 800 pounds and stretches 13 feet from tail to snout, but it can grow to more than 1,000 pounds.
Julie Schultz, kennel manager for the shelter, is the only person who transports the alligator between his two habitats.
"Ideally we would never pick him up, but we've got to," she said. "When I'm not here, someone has to put him out, so they just bite the bullet and bring him out."
Schultz feeds him raw chicken breasts daily — one cutlet in the morning and one at night.
"He really enjoys chicken fingers," Taylor said.
After his daily meal, Schultz carries Allygator from his heat lamp to the outside pen.
With bare hands, she scoops up the dark-green alligator and places him carefully in a gray case. She coos with praise when the gator gives her no trouble.
"It's amazing how he's adapted to being completely uprooted from his bathtub and moving to the shelter," Taylor said. "Hopefully it will be as positive when he moves on to his next home."
Despite initial concern about the shelter's unusual visitor, some staff members have expressed their excitement at the addition of an alligator to the facility.
"It's definitely been exciting to see his personality that he has expressed to staff members (whom) he enjoys," Taylor said.
For the most part, the staff has adapted to Allygator's needs, though there are some hesitations regarding his continued stay.
"I have been fearful for our staff members," said Heather Duren Stubbs, the shelter's operations coordinator. "It would be like having a lion here. No, we're not equipped to have that kind of animal here, and that's exactly why they have the laws they have set in place."
According to a Boone County ordinance, no individual may possess an exotic animal without the proper license or permit, as determined by the Missouri Department of Conservation, the United States Department of Agriculture or other such agencies.
Allygator's future home is uncertain, though the reptile seems content with his current lifestyle.
"He definitely is a happy, fat gator," Schultz said.

A cross-hole deburring tool from Xebec.
Every shop eventually faces the prospect of finishing parts with intersecting holes. Many inexpensive solutions exist, but the process begins with a clear definition of the need.
For example, Peter Gillespie, engineering manager at Shinn Fu Co. of America Inc., Kansas City, Mo., maker of hydraulic jacks, had the following scenario. A hole in the main jack cylinder and an internal seal passes over the edge of a hole, and sharp edges or burrs can damage the seal. "Is there is an economical way to smooth that edge to prevent or reduce seal damage?" he asked. "Because it's on a curved surface, most of my ideas are not working."
Assuming nothing Gillespie does while finishing the interior impacts the exterior, he needs a more complete definition for the intersection requirements.
The two most common requirements for hole intersections are deburring and providing a sealing edge at the intersection. For example, fuel injector holes must have no loose particles, burrs or rough edges that will negatively impact fuel flow, and hydraulic system holes require smooth surfaces for precise flow and minimal leakage around seals.
The author's experience required finishing miniature holes in stainless steel, removing burrs visible at 30× magnification while assuring that the finished intersection had no more than a 0.001 " radius. Each requirement necessitated different solutions.
Normally, the size and tenacity of cross-hole burrs is the problem, but sometimes burrs are merely in the wrong hole. One solution is to create burrs in the most advantageous position. The best solution, however, is to prevent burr formation. If a hole is big enough, drill or punch from the inside out to put burrs in the easiest-to-remove location.
If you cannot prevent them, minimize burr size at cross-holes by slowing the feed rate before a drill's corners start to exit into the larger or same-size hole. If the burrs are 0.005 " thick, slow the feed 0.005 " before the corners exit into the other hole. Drill cross-holes with a gundrill, which uses feed rates of ten thousandths of an inch, but rotates much faster than most drills, so the total cutting rate is still high. The small feed per tooth greatly reduces forces at the breakthrough hole intersection, and the resulting burrs are thin. Sometimes when appropriate based on part requirements, drilling a small hole first allows the larger tool to throw the burr into the smaller hole, so it does not have to be removed from the larger hole.
When the object is to remove most of the burr (but not necessarily all of it) and the burrs are not thicker than 0.003 ", the following tools provide quick, low-cost solutions. Most of these tools can be used by hand and in drill presses, and some can be used on CNC equipment. They include swivel-blade tools, countersinks, reversible countersinks, back countersinks, rotary burs, flexible-shank cutters, flexible abrasive ball-tipped brushes, conventional brushes and whisk-style brushes.
Hand-held swivel tools are the simplest and lowest cost option for most deburring. They cost about $10 and blades sell for as little as $1 each. They can deburr and radius hole edges in a few seconds.
A deburring tool from Heule Tool employs a rocking head to uniformly follow the contour of intersecting holes.
A variety of standard blade sizes and designs exist, including a clothespin style. Specials can also be ordered to fit specific needs. The blades are made of HSS or carbide.
A somewhat similar tool from Heule Tool Corp., Cincinnati, employs a rocking cutting head to uniformly follow the contour of the intersecting holes. It is designed for automated use, but can be applied manually on a drill press.
Inverted-cone rotary burs and stones allow a user to go through a small hole and manually traverse the cross-hole intersection. The backside of rotary burs can also provide that function. While the tools are largely limited to manual use, a 3-axis machining center can be used to boost production. For very small holes, inverted cones for the dental industry can be applied.
When a hole is big enough, 7⁄8 " in diameter, for example, some shops use a right-angle head with a bur ball to finish an intersection. The right-angle head is also suitable for outward drilling of holes.
J.W. Done's Orbitool uses a smooth, round disc with bur-like teeth to finish intersecting holes.
Another cross-hole deburring tool option is the Orbitool from J.W. Done Corp., which uses a smooth, round disc to protect surface finishes in the holes from being damaged by its bur-like teeth. It can be used either manually or on CNC machines, and is reportedly popular for some automotive applications because it selectively targets the hole edge with the burr while preventing scarring of bore surfaces.
The flexible shaft allows the tool to wobble or rotate to accommodate an intersection's uneven profile. This makes the tool flexible, which runs counter to the general notion that a tool must be rigid to perform. Michael Kapgan, president of the Hayward, Calif., company, noted that most potential users assume the tool is merely a rotary bur on a long stem, but the tool's flexibility makes it react notably different than more traditional tools. That's because the tool digs in less as it follows an intersection's contour.
The Flex-Hone from Brush Research Manufacturing can reach inside parts to deburr intersecting holes.
The Orbitool costs about $125 for a typical 1⁄8 " size. Part manufacturers report finishing 10,000 to 15,000 holes per tool in stainless steel and 20,000 to 50,000 holes in aluminum, according to the company. Cycle time is generally quick; for one automotive application it is 2 seconds. The finished edges can have a radius from 0.005 " to 1⁄8 ". Producing a large radius, however, may take several passes.
To both hone the surface and remove reasonable-size burrs, Brush Research Manufacturing Co. Inc., Los Angeles, offers the Flex-Hone tool. It is widely used on automotive engine blocks to create a surface finish texture that aids oil retention in cylinder walls. The tool has abrasive-laden balls on the ends of flexible fibers, which scrub the surface. When the bristles reach a cross-hole, they reach into the hole and drag across the intersection while entering and exiting. That provides deburring and radiusing.
While most users will use the larger hole to perform the deburring when intersecting holes have different diameters, the process can be performed through the smaller hole. The bristles can be short, thick and stiff or long, thin and more flexible. The abrasive balls are made of silicon carbide or diamond, and the various diameter balls are available with varying grit size. The tools are not designed to remove large, thick burrs. For those, use one of the previously mentioned tools first and then follow with the Flex-Hone.
Conventional wire brushes have been used for years when deburring intersecting holes, but they can easily scratch surfaces. Abrasive-filled nylon brushes can also be stiff or flexible, but they generally cut slower than the Flex-Hone.
For removing very light burrs or heavy burrs when surface finish is not an issue, flap wheels can be effective. They are available in many sizes and degrees of coarseness.
Xebec Deburring Technologies LLC, Huber Heights, Ohio, offers two brush styles for cross-hole deburring and surface and edge smoothing. The ceramic stone types have an alumina fiber abrasive stone at the ends of the flexible shafts. Each tool uses a single stone on the tip, and the stone is shaped into a spherical ball or columnar cylinder configuration. The stone surface has many fiber cutting edges to remove material. The self-sharpening action of the cutting edge provides a stable and continuous grinding performance.
Nori Sumiyoshi, president and CEO of Xebec Technology Co. Ltd., Japan, which manufactures the tools, noted that the ceramic stone types remove burrs as thick as 0.2mm (0.008 ") at intersecting holes. They can be obtained in three different grades of abrasive and are used on metals up to 57 HRC. They can enter holes from 3mm to 6mm and finish intersections up to 40mm deep.
The alumina fiber rod types can remove burrs up to 0.1mm (0.004 ") thick at the intersection of holes from 3.5mm to 20mm in diameter and up to 280mm deep. Each fiber in these brushes is made by binding together 1,000 alumina fiber filaments, and the tip of each fiber has 1,000 high-density cutting edges. Several of these fibers are bound together to make a flexible brush having thousands of cutting edges, which are self-sharpening.
Several other processes for finishing cross-holes also exist. They include:
• Abrasive micro blasting can effectively remove thin and brittle burrs, and manual and automated systems are available. Finished surfaces have a fine, blasted texture around the intersections. Microblasters can reach into holes as small as 0.056 " in diameter to deburr hole intersections.
• Electrochemical deburring can deburr dozens of intersecting holes as rapidly as it does one. Cycle times are typically about 20 seconds. When stainless steel is processed, hexavalent chrome is released in the solution, which must be discharged as hazardous waste after filtering. Titanium has not been a particularly good application for this process, but ECD easily finishes aluminum, copper and iron materials. In addition, ECD creates a small radius. Radii are normally from 0.005 " to 0.010 ", but larger radii can be produced. Cutting action can be tailored to specific portions of the intersection if desired. A carbon deposit adjacent to the intersection requires brushing or cleaning for many applications. The finished intersection can have finishes as fine as 8μin. Ra.

Before-and-after images show a part effectively deburred using Brush Research Manufacturing's Flex-Hone tool.
• The thermal energy method uses a high-temperature, microsecond flash to deburr and deflash. The action is so fast that burrs literally burn away before the part is affected. It is widely used for removing thin burrs on zinc die castings. It is probably the most effective process for constantly changing edge surfaces, such as those found on automotive ignition key locks. Many parts can be processed simultaneously with TEM. It is normally used for high-volume production. The oxide coating that is left on parts must be removed, usually via a chemical solution.
• Sinker EDMing can be used to deburr intersections. It has the advantage of not normally producing large edge breaks. EDM is a process that many shops already perform, including for electrode production. In addition, today's EDMs typically leave no significant edge recast material, which would otherwise need to be removed.
• Magnetic abrasive finishing is effective when precision surface finishes are required and burrs are short and thin. It leaves a nearly sharp edge while imparting a finish as fine as 1μin. Ra. Although the equipment is designed for a specific size hole, it can accommodate any size hole. MAF deburrs and polishes hole intersections in about 1 to 15 minutes. It is particularly effective in stainless steel tubing.
There are many potential solutions for finishing intersecting holes, but success depends on compiling detailed requirements, many of which users typically do not explicitly define until after a process is unsuccessfully tried. Assess whether the problem is best attacked by minimizing the burr first or only by removing it.
The cross-hole process is much more effective and time efficient on thin burrs because they allow finer abrasives to be applied for imparting smoother finishes. This reduces cycle time and produces more consistent edges.
Whether it is whirly gig balls flying around, a loose nut traversing the edges or abrasive putty being pushed through holes, a better way can be found. CTE
About the Author: Dr. LaRoux K. Gillespie has a 40-year history with precision part production as an engineer and manager. He is the author of 12 books on deburring and over 220 technical reports and articles on precision machining. He can be e-mailed at firstname.lastname@example.com.
With AFM, a part is fixtured between two opposed media cylinders. Abrasive media extruded from one cylinder to the other, together with the abrasive media size and viscosity, perform the honing action.
Evolving from a simple compressor, a combustor and, usually, a single-stage turbine, today's aircraft engines continue to combine advances in many engineering disciplines, including mechanical design, aerodynamic design, metallurgy, protective coatings, materials and manufacturing processes.
This includes holemaking and hole finishing. Keeping an aircraft engine turbine together and cool requires holes—thousands of them—that must be precisely sized and aimed, often in hard-to-work alloys.
Fortunately, hole-finishing processes, such as abrasive-flow machining (AFM), have evolved from pure deburring functions to tight-tolerance polishing and radiusing. Add new developments in machine controls, abrasive media and flow targeting, and the process becomes more precise.
Machined holes, including intersecting holes, in aerospace applications require surface improvement, and usually a lot of polishing to achieve the required tolerances. For holes in turbine engine components that rotate at high speeds, for instance, any smeared metal or microcracks at the surfaces increase the risk for diminished performance or failure. Aeronautical engineers specify AFM-imparted surface finishes into many component designs, especially where laminar flow, boundary layer turbulence, compressive residual stresses and edge conditioning are important factors. Even in inaccessible areas, surface-finish improvements from an original 120μin. Ra to 16μin. Ra or finer are possible.
AFM equipment can be stand-alone stations or integrated production systems. Typically, a part is fixtured between two opposed media cylinders. Abrasive media is extruded from one cylinder to the other and the tooling, together with the abrasive media size and viscosity, perform the honing action. When the media is forced into a restrictive passage, media viscosity rises, holding the abrasive media in place. The media abrades only in this restricted state. When it exits the restrictive passage, viscosity returns to normal, meaning no abrasion is produced on threads or seal surfaces.
With MicroFlow AFM, a process Kennametal Extrude Hone developed, lower-viscosity media and smaller abrasive particles allow finishing and edge radiusing of holes down to 50μin. Ra. Fuel-spray nozzles in fuel injectors, for example, can have defined edge radiuses that improve fuel spray distribution for better engine performance.
AFM is also valuable in overhaul and repair applications. Aircraft engine rebuilders use AFM to remove carbon deposits and restore flow characteristics to original specifications.

College Costume Parties
8 comments :
I agree with the trashy thing--I go to Penn State and there's lots of themed parties, and girls pretty much take it as an excuse to wear the same outfit every time: a bra and a really short skirt, somehow coordinating with the theme. I've never heard of a Rubik's Cube party til your post though, and it's SUCH a fun idea! I think I'm going to talk my roommates into having one:) Have a great day!!
ReplyDeleteI agree with the trashy thing also. People don't get that costumes can be goofy or silly and be just as good--excuse me, better--than the trashy ones. Personally I give people more credit when they have a costume that goes out of the box than just your slutty fire-fighter or slutty nurse or slutt (fill in the blank). The rubik's cube idea is fabu though!
ReplyDeleteHow cool is that!!! I have saved costumes and accessories from lots of theme parties...use them as gag gifts for year after year for my Christmas party "gag gifts"...sharing is so much fun...the rest go to charity for others to be able to use. Another way to recycle and give pleasure and fun to many people!!!

New Mexico Marriage Amendment (2014)
Not on Ballot |
This measure did not or will not appear on a ballot |
Voting on Marriage and Family |
Ballot Measures |
By state |
By year |
Not on ballot |
A similar measure was proposed for the 2012 ballot during the state 2012 legislative session. However, that measure never made the ballot.
Court ruling
Although no law specifically protects gay marriage in New Mexico, New Mexico Supreme Court Justice Edward L. Chavez ruled in December of 2013 that it was unconstitutional to deny a marriage license and the accompanying benefits to gay and lesbian couples. In his ruling, Chavez wrote, "Accordingly, New Mexico may neither constitutionally deny same-gender couples the right to marry nor deprive them of the rights, protections and responsibilities of marriage laws, unless the proponents of the legislation — the opponents of same-gender marriage — prove that the discrimination caused by the legislation is 'substantially related to an important government interest."[3]
Path to the ballot
According to Article XIX of the New Mexico Constitution, it takes a majority vote of all members of both houses of the New Mexico State Legislature to refer a proposed amendment to the ballot.
On January 31, the New Mexico House Consumer and Public Affairs Committee voted 3-2 on to advance the proposed constitutional amendment to the next committee.[1] The House Voters and Elections Committee planned to consider the bill on February 21, 2014. On January 21, 2014, action on SRJ 6 was indefinitely postponed, essentially killing the measure for 2014.[2][4]

RJ Sports Typhoon Mini Stand Bags
Might not help my handicap, but sure will help my back
July 14, 2014
A Fantastic Value
I purchased this bag on sale for $49.95, which is probably the best value of any golf related item I've ever acquired. Holds all 14 clubs without any problem, so I will start using it in place of my larger, heavier cart bag. It would still be a great bargain at the normal retail price of $99.95.
December 9, 2013
Great Bag
Nice bag and great value. Everything is as described and a lot of attention has been given to ease of use and functionality whilst keeping it lightweight. The one thing that would improve it for me is slightly bigger pockets. The length is fine but they could be a bit roomier inside. Recommended.

"RA can severely impact a person's health-related quality of life. In addition to preparing meals, patients living with RA may have trouble doing everyday activities like washing their hair, getting dressed or committing to social functions, even if they are being treated for the disease," said Nurse Practitioner Patricia Daul, RN, CCRC, Executive Director of Clinical Services, Buffalo Infusion Center.(3) "Often, patients with RA who may not be satisfied with their current treatment plan think they need to live with the physical and emotional effects of the disease, but that's not always the case.(3) Their treatment may not be working well enough for them, and they may want to speak to their healthcare professional about other treatment options."
Additional results from the survey showed that 60 percent of this group of respondents say that they still experience pain, swelling and stiffness daily,(2) and 66 percent say that the physical and non-physical symptoms of RA limit their ability to perform daily activities from a fair amount to a great deal.(2) Cooking-related tasks such as opening jars and gripping things also prove difficult, and 56 percent of respondents say their RA symptoms have taken some, most or all of the joy out of cooking.(2)
"One of our goals is to help make cooking easier for people with RA, to help them do the things they need and want to do in the kitchen and participate in life's little celebrations," Lee said. "Even if they have RA, we want to inspire them to say, 'I can with RA.'"

After graduating from high school, young Hiromi (Naoko Watanabe) moves from Niigata to Tokyo to pursue her dreams of becoming an actress. She first starts out in the adult film industry under the stage name of Mihiro...
" | It seems that Yuichi Onuma (Dotei Horoki, Akiba) is on a roll with nude, his third feature released in 2010. Based on the popular autobiography of recently retired (at the age of 27) porn star, Mihiro, nude follows a traditional trajectory. Girl from the sticks comes to the big city. Where else, but in Shibuya she meets an AV tout. From idoru magazine spreads to spreading her legs in hardcore porn movies is her treacherous ride to success. Hisayasu Satou recently did the same story in Nama no nai onatachi – poorly. Onuma gives the story poignancy in Mihoro's loss of not so much innocence, as connection to friends and the world she left behind and her fragility and isolation in the banal world of porn. Sensitively and non-judgmentally portrayed by Naoko Watanabe, Mihiro is, of all things, a fairly normal woman making life choices. The real Mihiro shows up as screen Mihiro's savvy guide to the ins and outs of the sex film industry and Ken Mitsuishi shines in the role of her manager/pimp. | " |

Very "Pinteresting" – Demographics on Pinterest Users
Pinterest – you either like it or hate it. Chance are if you are a guy, you're in the hate group as Pinterest's users are mostly comprised of women. Male or female, one thing marketers and brand managers cannot ignore is the fact that Pinterest has provoked a resurgence of web site referrals, which have been trending downward since the advent of other social sites like Facebook and Twitter. The details included in the following infographic, published by Modea, will help you better understand this audience and ultimately, the undeniable impact of Pinterest as a referral platform.

THE master of a general cargo ship attacked by pirates off Marka, east coast of Somalia, yesterdays rammed the gang's boat as it tried to come alongside..
According to the latest weekly report from the ICC International maritime bureau the armed raiders chased the cargo ship underway and fired at the vessel leaving bullet holes in the bridge, lifeboat and superstructure. There is no information on what happened to the pirates.
In another serious incident reported by the IMB about fifteen small boats followed a chemical tanker underway last Tuesday, in the Gulf of Aden, and tried to come close. The ship increased speed and the chase was aborted. French maritime forces at Djibouti were notified and an Italian warship was dispatched to the location.
